As for trails, Commissioner Dan Ellison clearly stated that the "county doesn't want to be in the trail business."

Draper said he did try to make the Fish Creek residents feel better by explaining that the paved road might have the effect of slowing people down.

He explained that the road will not be widened, but will be paved and striped.

"The lanes will only be 9 feet," Draper said.

Having stripes on such a narrow road makes people stay inside the lines, he explained. Many cities are using these and other kinds of visual "barriers" to scare people to stay inside their lanes, Draper said.
